The other angle is the relationship angle, be trustworthy. Follow the old adage, don't stick your dick in crazy, because she could get possessive and controlling. Possibly lastly, be the kind of person you want to be with, because if you want a good person that isn't liable to install such software on your devices behind your back, then that is the best way to go about getting them.
